horse during first use. ● When
using the chainsaw, keep a first
aid kit for large wounds and a
means of calling for help. A larg-
er and more extensive first aid
kit should be nearby.
WARNING ● Ensure a firm
footing, a clean workplace and
plan a retreat path from falling
branches before using the de-
vice. ● Beware of exhaust
fumes, oil vapour and sawdust.
If necessary, wear a mask or
breathing apparatus. ● Always
hold the chainsaw tightly with
both hands. Hold the handles
with your thumb on one side and
your fingers on the other side.
Hold the rear handle with your
right hand and the front handle
with your left hand. ● Risk of in-
jury. Do not make any modifica-
tions to the device. Do not use
the device to drive attachments
or devices not recommended by
the manufacturer of the device.
● Before switching on the de-
vice, make sure that the saw
chain does not touch any ob-
jects. ● Serious injuries or death
if a wrongly tensioned saw chain
jumps out of the guide rail.
Check the chain tension before
each use. The length of the
chain depends on the tempera-
ture. ● Ensure that all protective
devices, handles and bucking
spikes are correctly fitted, se-
curely fastened and in good con-
dition. ● Serious injuries due to
incorrect working methods:
You need to be alert at all
times and be in control of your
workplace when working with
the chainsaw. The size of the
workspace depends on the
task to be performed and the
size of the tree or work piece.
Felling a tree requires a larger
workspace than e.g. trimming.
Never saw with your body in
line with the guide rail and
chain. This reduce the danger
of being hit by the chain on the
head or body during a kick-
back.
Do not move the chainsaw
back and forth but rather let
the chain do the work, keep
the chain sharp and do not try
to push the chain through the
cut.
Do not apply pressure to the
saw at the end of the cut. Be
prepared to relax the load on
the saw when it has cut
through the wood.
Do not stop the chainsaw
while sawing. Let the saw run
until it has finished the saw
cut.
● Familiarize yourself with your
new chainsaw by making simple
cuts in safely supported wood.
Repeat this exercise if you have
not used your chainsaw for a
long time. ● Do not saw vines
and/or bushes with a diameter of
